Corellis v. Superflexibles

I'm looking to make the switch from Obligatos to a rope-core string for my 7/8 hybrid. I'm looking to sacrifice a little warmth for a bit more definition, while at the same time keeping a decent arco tone.

Anyone have experience with both of the above-named brands? Recommendations?

I am no string guru, but I've try a fair amount of sets to know. The sound is mainly in your hands, better to practice than spend time and money on yet another set. For me it's a matter of resource allocation, although I recognize that experimenting to understand and improve is part of the human nature.

(and it is nice that you've noticed the correct spelling of my first name ! thx Mike)

The Varicors are an excellent hybrid string.
Good articulation and definition over a warm tone.
None of the usual jazz string mwah there...
Barrie Kolstein initially designed them as an orchestral string, a replacement for Original Flexocors, but he constantly worked on them and made improvements over the years.
